Mike Smith will start Tuesday vs. Vegas but Skinner will likely start Wednesday with Mikko Koskinen landing in COVID-19 protocol. Skinner has gone 8-0-2 with a 1.97 GAA and .928 SV% in 10 AHL games and 5-6-0 with a 2.85 GAA and .908 SV% in 12 NHL games this season.

Koskinen will not be available for the Oilers' next three games, including a back-to-back on Tuesday/Wednesday. The Oilers will get Mike Smith back from injury and Stuart Skinner was recalled from Bakersfield, so look for them to split the back-to-back vs. Vegas and Chicago.

Rask has not played since January 24th and will not practice for the rest of this week due to a lower-body injury.

Lagesson went to the AHL during the All-Star break but is expected to be in the lineup on Tuesday. Lagesson will likely continue to play for Kris Russell, who was moved to IR in a corresponding move on Monday.
